Course Description The main purpose of this core course is to help you understand how the criminal justice system
works and how it reacts to various issues regarding crime and crime control. The materials will
examine how various segments (the legislature, police, courts, corrections, juvenile justice, etc.)
react to issues surrounding crime suppression. This perspective will allow us to delve into how
policies are intended to work and how they actually unfold in practice. This class provides a
foundation for understanding how the criminal justice system operates. As such, this class is a
building block for pursuing other specialized courses and more advanced topics.
Course prerequisites: None
Course Learning Objectives This course is structured to help you achieve the following aims:
1) To develop a basic understanding of how the criminal justice system works
2) To become familiar with the role of the legislature, police, courts, corrections, and
juvenile justice with respect to crime suppression
3) To explore policy developments and their applications
4) To concentrate on criminal justice developments within the State of Texas.

Student Expectations
What do I expect from you?
I expect you to be a PART-E student: prepared; attentive; respectful; tenacious; excited.
Prepared: In order to fully participate, you must come prepared to the classroom, even the
virtual one. Each week, you will be provided with textbook chapters to read and online lecture
videos to watch to help you gain familiarity with the course material. Assigned readings and
lecture videos should be completed before any class assignments are attempted so that you can
produce high-quality products and promote dynamic class discussions.
Respectful: As an online learning environment, you will be interacting with your peers in online
contexts only. I expect students to work together in an open, honest, and respectful manner at all
times. You are free to, even encouraged to, disagree with one another.
However, be sure to use a respectful tone at all times, even if you are on
opposite sides of the debate. Proof-read anything you write to make sure it is
worded professionally and contains appropriate language/content. If you
would not say it or send it to your boss, then don’t send it and/or say it to me
or your classmates.
Ambitious: I expect you to look beyond the final course grade and bring your best self to class.
Instead of shooting for the letter grade, consider what this class can do for your life and your
future career. Bring your passion and your interests into the classroom. It will make class more
enjoyable for everyone.
Tenacious: Learning is an active process. I do not expect that you will read over the text one
time and become an expert on probation & parole. However, I do expect you to actively seek out
answers to questions you have. You can talk with me during my virtual office hours, send me an
email, or seek out answers from other resources available online or through the library. “I don’t
know” is not an endpoint, it is a beginning.
Excited: You learn more when you are excited about the
topic, and you become excited when you get to learn
about something that interests you. For this reason, I
have developed ways to allow student creativity and
freedom in this course in order to help you find a topic
you are interested in and explore it in more detail. I
expect that you will bring that interest and excitement
into class to help create an enthusiastic and energetic
learning environment for everyone.

Instructor Expectations
What can you expect from me?
You can expect me to be a HARD professor: helpful; accessible; respectful; diligent.
Helpful: As your professor, I am here to help you be successful
in the course. If you have questions about the material, or if you
need clarification on a specific assignment, handout, requirement,
etc., I am here to help. Depending on the question, I may be able
to provide you with the specific answer, or I may direct you to the
appropriate resources. If you are having trouble with course
material, or there are external sources that may impact your
ability to be successful, I encourage you to visit with me to
discuss your situation. I will try to help as much as possible.
Accessible: In order to be helpful, it is important for you to be able to get into contact with me.
My preferred method of communication is email. I try to respond to all student emails within
one business day so that you get answers quickly. I also hold virtual office hours each week
where I can provide more detailed assistance than is possible over email. During office hours, I
can go over assignments, discuss quizzes/exams, and answer any questions about course
material. If you are unable to meet with me during office hours and need help, please feel free to
contact me via email and set up an appointment. I can set up on-campus or video-conferencing
appointments as necessary.
Respectful: Just like my expectations of you, you can also expect me to
communicate with you in an open, honest, and respectful manner at all
times. I respect your right to challenge the material and discuss
opposing viewpoints. You can also expect that all written
communications from me will be worded professionally and contain
appropriate language and content.
Diligent: Teaching is my job, and I am very passionate about it. Part of that job is being
focused on providing you the best experience in my classroom that I can. To that end, you can
expect me to go beyond the textbook during class, bringing you videos, articles, guest lectures,
handouts, and other material that will enhance your learning. You can also expect me to respect
your time by providing quality feedback on submitted assignments within a timely manner. I do
my best to grade and return assignments within two weeks of submission so that you are
provided with prompt feedback on your assignments. If there is a delay, I will keep you updated
about the situation.

Dr. Bailey’s Course Policies
Attendance Policy Attendance is crucial for success in higher education. Each module you will engage in a virtual
activity. Class activities are all individual activities, although many of them allow your
submissions to be shared with your classmates. Completing the activity during the specified
timeframe is just as important as being in class face to face. I do consider participation at the end
of the semester during final grade assignment when determining border-line grades.
Email Policy Email can be a powerful communication tool. There is room, however, for
misunderstanding and miscommunication, and this can reduce its
effectiveness. To facilitate smooth online interactions, there are a few rules
regarding the use of email that should be followed in this course:
1) When sending an email, please include a subject heading that describes the topic of the
email (for instance, “Question about the first quiz”).
2) Identify the course name in the email. I teach multiple courses, so it is necessary for you
to identify which course you are referring.
3) Remember that correspondence with me should remain professional. That means each
email should have a greeting, a message with punctuation, and your full name at the
closing. If you would not send the email to your boss, then please do not send it to me.
4) Many times email conversations require some degree of back and forth between the
participants. I try to respond to all student emails within one business day, so please
show me similar consideration when you respond.
Extra Credit I offer a variety of extra credit opportunities throughout the semester. These opportunities may
include one or more of the following:
Extra credit opportunities on exams
Extra credit writing assignments
Extra credit for attending University-sponsored lectures, workshops, and/or activities
Please note that I do not offer extra extra credit. I will not offer last minute assignments at the
end of the semester to students requesting extra points. You must take advantage of the extra
credit opportunities as they are assigned.

Dr. Danielle Bailey
Page 6 of 27
This schedule is subject to change at the instructor’s discretion.
Office Hours I hold virtual office hours each week. During office hours, I can go over assignments, discuss
quizzes/exams, and answer any questions about course material. If you are unable to visit me
during office hours and need help, please feel free to contact me via email and set up an
appointment. I can also do on-campus appoints on request.
I may cancel my office hours if something unexpected comes up. If office
hours are canceled, I will inform you during class or through Canvas
announcements. Please note: I encourage students to come to me if they have
questions or would like clarification about written assignments. However, I
will not give feedback through email conversations. Instead, you should plan
on discussing the assignment during my virtual office hours or schedule an
appointment with me to go over assignments one on one.
Submission Policy Course assignments will be submitted online through Canvas. In order to receive full points,
assignments must be submitted by 11:59 PM on the last day of the module. Please check the
assignment instructions to ensure that each assignment is submitted appropriately. To avoid
confusion, I do not accept assignments submitted via email.
Online submissions allow for multiple attempts, allowing you to upload a new submission if you
determine that your first submission was problematic in any way. I will only grade the last
submission. All previous submissions will receive an automatic zero. This means that your final
submission must be complete; I will not use multiple submission attempts to reconstruct a
complete assignment from portions submitted in multiple uploads.
Late Assignments Online assignments are due at 11:59 PM on the last day of the module. Submission links will
close at this time. No late assignments will be allowed unless there are emergency situations and
documentation is provided (please review the makeup policy provided on the following page).
BE AWARE: Technical problems, including computer access
problems, computer failure, internet connection problems,
browser issues, incorrect submissions, etc., often occur during
the semester. Even if the technical or logistic problem is not
your fault, you are not guaranteed an extension or a “do-
over” for the assignment. Please be sure to submit early. This
ensures you have time to contact me for assistance if something
goes wrong.

This schedule is subject to change at the instructor’s discretion.
Make-Up Quizzes/Exams/Assignments The University Catalog does not establish make-ups as a student right. I provide a detailed
course schedule in this syllabus, and I expect students to arrange their schedules accordingly.
Opportunities to make-up missed quizzes/exams/assignments will be provided only for
exceptional reasons and must be documented (e.g., hospital records, obituaries). Vacations,
regularly scheduled doctor’s appointments, and work schedules do not qualify as exceptional
reasons and will not be accepted as an excused absence.
Requests for make-up quiz/exam/assignment must be made within 3 business days of the
submission date. Make-up quizzes and exams will be in forms completely different from
original and will be scheduled at the convenience of the instructor. Make-up assignments will be
completed at the discretion of the instructor.
Military Personnel I understand that students who are currently members of the Armed Forces may have obligations
that impact their ability to participate in class. In situations where service to the Armed Forces
impacts course participation, students may be able to work out alterative options for completion
of their assignments. In order to approve alterative options, students will need to provide me
with at least 3 days’ notice and include proof of orders or a letter from their commanding officer
or senior NCO detailing the student’s obligations that will impede course participation.
Situations will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
Students Working in Emergency Services Students working in emergency services may also work out alternative options for completion of
their assignments on an as-needed basis. In order to approve alternative arrangements, students
must notify me within 3 business days of the situation and provide documentation from a
supervisor. Situations will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.

Module Assignments
The course is organized into modules. Each module is intended to take one week. Each of the
following assignments corresponds to a module assignment. Due dates and delivery mode for
each assignment are listed in the course schedule proved at the end of this syllabus.
Class Activities (10 points each; 100 points total) Most modules, you will participate in an activity to help supplement the
lecture material for that week. A diverse range of activities (writing, acting,
creative activities, etc.) will be included in order to appeal to different
learning styles and encourage class engagement.
Class activities will either be graded as complete/incomplete or using the rubric below,
depending on the activity. You must complete the activity by the end of the module to receive
points. In cases of documented emergencies or approved school functions, alternative
arrangements may be arranged on a case by case basis with instructor approval.

Syllabus Quiz (20 points) This quiz is designed to ensure your full understanding of the information provided in this course
syllabus. I recognize that this syllabus is a long, dense document, but there is a reason! The
course syllabus is essentially a legal document that you must agree to in order to continue on
with this course. As such, it is important that you have a full understanding of what is expected
of you throughout the semester. This syllabus goes over my expectations of you, including
giving you information about all course policies, upcoming assignments, and the class schedule.
This syllabus also goes over what you can expect from me as the professor, namely the ways in
which you can contact me, my grading system, and my expectations about student behavior and
participation throughout the course.
The syllabus quiz consists of 10 multiple-
choice and True/False questions. This is the
only quiz that you can take as many times as
you need. My goal is for everyone to achieve
the full 20 points, because that shows you are
fully aware of all the course requirements.
There is no time limit for this quiz.
Plagiarism Quiz Certificate (30 points) Plagiarism is a huge concern for college students. While some forms of plagiarism are
intentional, often plagiarism results from lack of understanding about what constitutes plagiarism
and awareness of how to avoid plagiarized material. Students will be required to complete a
plagiarism course and successfully complete a plagiarism certification test before any written
assignments are completed in the course.
The course is available online at https://www.indiana.edu/~plag/.
This course covers the definition and forms of plagiarism, as well
as providing examples of plagiarized material. The course is self-
paced, and will take most students approximately one hour to
complete. At the end of the course, you will complete a plagiarism
test. During the test, you will be given ten randomly chosen
questions where you will have to identify 1) if the excerpt contains plagiarized material and 2)
what type of plagiarism is present. You will have an unlimited number of chances to complete
the quiz, but each attempt is randomized and will include new questions.
You must score 9/10 to pass the certification test. Upon successful completion, you will be
emailed a copy of the plagiarism certificate. You must submit proof of this certificate to Canvas
using the appropriate link by the due date noted in the course schedule for credit. If you have
completed the plagiarism certificate in a previous course, you can use the same certificate for

credit. You do not need to redo the certification test. However, I encourage you to revisit the
online course as a refresher on plagiarism concerns since you will be held to the same standard in
the course regardless of the time passed since your certification test.
Chapter Reading Quizzes (10 points each; 130 points total) Every module will cover a different chapter in the textbook. Chapter reading quizzes will be
conducted each module to test for comprehension and understanding of course material.
Reading quizzes will consist of ten randomly selected multiple choice, matching, and true/false
questions. Questions will cover information from the textbook chapter only. All quizzes are
open note and open book, but will be limited to 20 minutes. You may attempt each quiz three
times, but only the highest attempt will count towards your final class grade.
Chapter reading quizzes will be conducted through Canvas. The link for the reading quiz will
open at 12:01 AM the first day of the module, and will close at 11:59
PM the last day of the module. Any open attempts will automatically
submit at 11:59 PM on the last day of the module, regardless of
completion. You may take the quiz at any time during the testing
window. Due to this flexibility, no makeup reading quizzes will be
allowed.
Final Exam (100 points) Unit Five will conclude with a 100-point final exam. The final exam is cumulative, covering
material from all modules throughout the semester. The final exam consists of multiple choice,
true/false, matching, and essay questions. The final exam will be open-book, open-note. You
will complete the final exam through Canvas. The link to start the final exam will be open for
three days (see course schedule for dates/times). You will have two hours to complete the final
exam. Only one attempt is allowed. Like chapter reading quizzes, the quiz will automatically
submit at the end of the testing window, regardless of completion.

Unit Activities
At the conclusion of Units One through Four, you will complete an online activity that
synthesizes the unit material into a cohesive project, activity, or writing assignment. Each of the
following activities correspond to an end of the unit assignment. Due dates for each assignment
are listed in the course schedule provided at the end of this syllabus.
Texas Law (30 points) During Unit One, you will learn about the legal process in
the United States. For this activity, you will propose a new
law to the Texas Legislature. This law will prohibit any
behavior that is currently legal in Texas. You will present
your law in a 2-3 page paper that explains 1) what
behavior you are trying to make illegal; 2) your reasoning
for the law; 3) the population most likely to be arrested or
cited based on your law’s criteria; 4) two possible harms
(social, legal, environment, etc.) that could occur from the implementation of your law. The goal
of this assignment is to help you apply the material from Unit One when you construct and
analyze your new law.
Police Recruitment Brochure (30 points) Unit Two focuses on policing. For this
activity, you will help a local police
department recruit high-quality police cadets
by developing an informative recruitment
brochure. This brochure will help the police
department advertise for entry-level police
officer job openings that the department is
looking to fill. Your brochure will include
several key pieces of information for
interested cadets, including 1) preferred
characteristics in applicants; 2) method of
recruitment and hiring; 3) job expectations
for new officers; 4) benefits and potential dangers of becoming a police officer. The brochure
must be unique, inviting, and creative in order to help the department’s efforts for recruitment.

Innocence Project Profile (30 points) In Unit Three, you will learn about the court system in the United States. One of the topics we
will discuss is the death penalty. This is one of the most controversial topics in our court
systems, particularly since the United States is the only industrialized nation in the world that
continues to use the death penalty. One major concern about the death penalty centers on the
increasing number of individuals who are found to be wrongfully incarcerated. The Innocence
Project is a non-profit organization that helps identify wrongfully convicted individuals by
conducting post-conviction evidence analysis and case investigations. For this activity, you will
use the Innocence Project’s database to construct a 2-3 page case profile on an exonerated
individual.
Daily Life in Corrections (30 points) During Unit Four, you learned about the realities and challenges of our correctional system. For
this activity, you will create a fictional character associated with the correctional system and put
together a presentation describing the character's daily life. Your character must be a
correctional officer, a community supervision officer, or an inmate in prison. The choice of
position is up to you. Your depiction will include a description of the character’s personality,
three activities that they do on a daily basis, and at least one activity or interaction that may put
the character at risk for harm. You have three options in which to portray the character’s daily
life: a play, a read-through, or a comic book depiction.

Extra Credit Assignments
Homework Pass (10 points) No matter how well organized you are, sometimes life interferes with your plans and you end up
missing an assignment due date or messing up on a submission. I have created the Homework
Pass system for that reason. Homework passes allow you to miss one 10-point assignment
without penalty or makeup.
Each of you will receive one Homework Pass at the
beginning of the semester. In this course, Homework
Passes can be applied to Chapter Reading Quizzes and
Class Activities. If you decide to apply your
Homework Pass to one of these assignments, you will
receive full points for that assignment. To receive
credit, email Dr. Bailey and identify what assignments
you would like to apply the Homework Pass towards.
Although the Homework Pass system is intended to help alleviate the impact of unexpected life
events on your course grade, there is a reward system in place for students who do not apply
their Homework Pass towards a missed assignment. You are eligible to SKIP the final exam
without penalty if you meet the ALL of following requirements:
1. You do not have a zero for ANY assignment within the course.
2. You have not used your Homework Pass for a previous assignment.
3. Your current grade percentage in the course for all other assignments is an 85.0% or
above. Percentages will not be rounded up to 85% for purposes of this reward system.
If you meet all three of the above requirements, congratulations! You may choose to skip the
final exam without penalty. If you decide to skip the final exam, let Dr. Bailey know during
Module 14. Your final course grade will reflect your current grade percentage in the course for
all other assignments. If you decide to take the final example, your final course grade will be
calculated using the grading point system on page two of this syllabus.

Controversies in Criminal Justice Paper (30 points) For this extra credit activity, you will create a 3 – 4 page written essay in response to a
controversial topic in criminal justice. This is meant to be an argumentative essay, meaning you
are choosing a side of the controversy, and trying to convince your readers why your argument is
correct. You should use at least three different, concrete reasons to support your opinion.
Essays should be written in paragraph format, using transitions statements and subheadings as
necessary to create an organized, reader-friendly paper. I have provided several handouts on
Canvas regarding argumentative essays to provide you with help formulating and structuring an
argumentative essay.
You may choose any of the following prompt for your argumentative essay:
1. Is criminal behavior determined biologically?
2. Should the police be allowed to use trickery and deceit in interrogations?
3. Does the second amendment protect the right to possess automatic weapons?
4. Does the United States have a right to torture suspected terrorists?
5. Should plea bargaining be used in felony cases?
6. Should there be mandatory minimum sentences for criminal offenses?
7. Should juvenile courts be abolished and juveniles tried within the normal court system?
8. Should convicted defendants have a right to DNA testing after conviction?
9. Should private ownership of prisons by for-profit companies be allowed?
Your argumentative essay must be at least three full pages
long and include three external references (not including
your course textbook). Papers must be APA style,
including a title page, an abstract page, and an APA-format
reference page (not included in the 2 -3 page limit). In
accordance with APA format, papers must be typed using
Times New Roman, 12 point font, double-spaced, with 1”
margins.
When creating your argumentative essay, remember that
there is no right or wrong for your opinions. You can argue
either side for any of the above prompts. The key with this
paper is to provide support for your opinion using outside
references. I expect that this paper will take you more than
one draft, as arguments very often solidify as you write. Without a second draft, your paper will
most likely be weaker at the beginning. I encourage students to complete a full first draft, then
make appropriate edits to ensure that your final argument paper is cohesive and strong
throughout. Remember to use the grading rubric when you are editing so you can make sure
your paper meets all the requirements before submitting.

UT Tyler’s Student standards of academic conduct
Disciplinary proceedings may be initiated against any student who engages in scholastic
dishonesty, including, but not limited to, cheating, plagiarism, collusion, the submission for
credit of any work or materials that are attributable in whole or in part to another person, taking
an examination for another person, any act designed to give unfair advantage to a student or the
attempt to commit such acts.
i. “Cheating” includes, but is not limited to:
copying from another student’s test paper;
using, during a test, materials not authorized by the person giving the test;
failure to comply with instructions given by the person administering the test;
possession during a test of materials which are not authorized by the person giving the
test, such as class notes or specifically designed “crib notes”. The presence of textbooks
constitutes a violation if they have been specifically prohibited by the person
administering the test;
using, buying, stealing, transporting, or soliciting in whole or part the contents of an
unadministered test, test key, homework solution, or computer program;
collaborating with or seeking aid from another student during a test or other assignment
without authority;
discussing the contents of an examination with another student who will take the
examination;
divulging the contents of an examination, for the purpose of preserving questions for
use by another, when the instructors has designated that the examination is not to be
removed from the examination room or not to be returned or to be kept by the student;
substituting for another person, or permitting another person to substitute for oneself to
take a course, a test, or any course-related assignment;
paying or offering money or other valuable thing to, or coercing another person to
obtain an unadministered test, test key, homework solution, or computer program or
information about an unadministered test, test key, home solution or computer program;
falsifying research data, laboratory reports, and/or other academic work offered for
credit;
taking, keeping, misplacing, or damaging the property of The University of Texas at
Tyler, or of another, if the student knows or reasonably should know that an unfair
academic advantage would be gained by such conduct; and
misrepresenting facts, including providing false grades or resumes, for the purpose of
obtaining an academic or financial benefit or injuring another student academically or
financially.

ii. “Plagiarism” includes, but is not limited to, the appropriation, buying, receiving as a gift, or
obtaining by any means another’s work and the submission of it as one’s own academic work
offered for credit.
iii. “Collusion” includes, but is not limited to, the unauthorized collaboration with another person
in preparing academic assignments offered for credit or collaboration with another person to
commit a violation of any section of the rules on scholastic dishonesty.
iv. All written work that is submitted will be subject to review by SafeAssignTM, available on

Dr. Bailey’s Academic Dishonesty addendum
All assignments submitted through Canvas will be will be checked using TurnItIn plagiarism
software, which checks the submitted essay against other student papers, books, and online
content. Papers with significant overlap in wording/content with other sources will be subject to
an automatic zero on the assignment and may be subject to other penalties in accordance with
the Academic Conduct statement described previously, including but not limited to failure of the
course.
All papers submitted during this semester require APA format. References should be cited
correctly in APA format and be noted in both in-text citations and reference pages. Lack of in-
text citations is considered plagiarism, even if the material is not a direct quote from the
resource. If you did not know the information prior to starting your research, you should include
an in-text citation for it. APA format relies on paraphrasing instead of direct quotations. I
expect that you will not use direct quotations from any of your references. Copying your
own words from other papers is also considered plagiarism, and will result in the described
penalties.
For more information, including the definitions and examples of various types of plagiarism,
please visit http://www.uefap.com/writing. This link is also available through the UT Tyler
Writing Center’s website.
DO NOT…
Copy and paste your own words from a previous assignment (same or different course)
Pay for or “borrow” someone else’s paper to submit as your assignment
Copy and paste words directly from another source
Leave out in-text citations or quotation marks for direct quotes from someone else
Use a classmate’s words, phrasing, or paragraphs in your own paper
Forget to give credit where credit is due. Provide acknowledgement with an in-text
citation when you use someone else’s ideas, even if you rephrase their idea into your own
words

Netiquette @ UT Tyler
"Netiquette" is, simply, Internet etiquette, or a set of expectations that describe appropriate
behaviors when interacting online. It is important to understand that you will be held to the exact
same standards of UT Tyler’s Face-to-Face traditional courses when learning in an online
environment. In fact, for 100% online courses, your online classroom behavior may be the only
interaction you have with your faculty and classmates, therefore making your netiquette even
more important. Remember, you only get to make a first impression once, irrespective of the
course delivery method.
Be courteous. You only get one chance for an online first impression. Make it count. Do not say
or do anything in an online classroom that you would not do in a face-to-face classroom. This
includes not “YELLING” (typing in all caps), not “flaming” (attacking someone, such as insults
and name-calling), and/or not dominating the discussion.
Be human. Remember there is another person on the other side of the screen. Remain patient,
ask and wait for clarification if you do not understand something, and avoid assumptions and
rushed judgments. Forgive mistakes, and apologize for your own errors.
Be a good classmate. Remember your own role as a student. Follow your instructor’s directions
at all times. Be authentic and collaborative with fellow students. Be aware of cyberbullying and
make every attempt to eliminate it. Appreciate the diversity and different communication styles
of your peers. Remember, since this class is online, you may have classmates from all over the
world.
Be professional. Proofread your own writing for spelling, grammar, and punctuation to prevent
miscommunication. Avoid slang, sarcasm, or emotionally-charged writing, as tone can be
difficult to translate online. Profanity and offensive language will not be tolerated. Do not use
abbreviations (2moro, 2T, B@U) or emoticons in your online class unless your professor
approves and supports such writing styles.
Be a responsible digital citizen. What you post online is difficult to retract once it is published.
What you post online can follow you for your lifetime. Do not share personal information you
would never want public, and respect other people’s privacy. Do not share someone else’s work
without their permission.

UT Tyler a Tobacco-Free University All forms of tobacco will not be permitted on the UT Tyler main campus, branch campuses, and
any property owned by UT Tyler. This applies to all members of the University community,
including students, faculty, staff, University affiliates, contractors, and visitors. Forms of
tobacco not permitted include cigarettes, cigars, pipes, water pipes (hookah), bidis, kreteks,

visit www.uttyler.edu/tobacco-free.
State-Mandated Course Drop Policy Texas law prohibits a student who began college for the first time in Fall 2007 or thereafter from
dropping more than six courses during their entire undergraduate career. This includes courses
dropped at another 2-year or 4-year Texas public college or university. For purposes of this rule,
a dropped course is any course that is dropped after the census date (See Academic Calendar for
the specific date). Exceptions to the 6-drop rule may be found in the catalog. Petitions for
exemptions must be submitted to the Enrollment Services Center and must be accompanied by
documentation of the extenuating circumstance. Please contact the Enrollment Services Center if
you have any questions.
Student Absence due to Religious Observance Students who anticipate being absent from class due to a religious observance are requested to
inform the instructor of such absences by the second class meeting of the semester.
Student Absence for University-Sponsored Events and Activities If you intend to be absent for a university-sponsored event or activity, you (or the event sponsor)
must notify the instructor at least two weeks prior to the date of the planned absence. At that time
the instructor will set a date and time when make-up assignments will be completed.

Grade Replacement/Forgiveness and Census Date Policies Students repeating a course for grade forgiveness (grade replacement) must file a Grade
Replacement Contract with the Enrollment Services Center (ADM 230) on or before the Census
Date of the semester in which the course will be repeated. Grade Replacement Contracts are
available in the Enrollment Services Center or at http://www.uttyler.edu/registrar. Each
semester’s Census Date can be found on the Contract itself, on the Academic Calendar, or in the
information pamphlets published each semester by the Office of the Registrar.
Failure to file a Grade Replacement Contract will result in both the original and repeated grade
being used to calculate your overall grade point average. Undergraduates are eligible to exercise
grade replacement for only three course repeats during their career at UT Tyler; graduates are
eligible for two grade replacements. Full policy details are printed on each Grade Replacement
Contract. The Census Date is the deadline for many forms and enrollment actions of which
students need to be aware. These include:
o Submitting Grade Replacement Contracts, Transient Forms, requests to withhold
directory information, approvals for taking courses as Audit, Pass/Fail or Credit/No
Credit.
o Receiving 100% refunds for partial withdrawals. (There is no refund for these after
the Census Date)
o Schedule adjustments (section changes, adding a new class, dropping without a “W”
grade)
o Being reinstated or re-enrolled in classes after being dropped for non-payment
o Completing the process for tuition exemptions or waivers through Financial Aid
Disability and Accessibility Services In accordance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, Americans with Disabilities Act
(ADA) and the ADA Amendments Act (ADAAA) the University offers accommodations to
students with learning, physical and/or psychiatric disabilities. If you have a disability, including
